Why:
Prostitution activity has plagued the Sepulveda Boulevard corridor
for decades. The OVB Human Trafficking Task Force was created in
response to public feedback and concerns. This newly formed task
force focuses on prostitution related crimes, arresting pimps,
"Johns," traffickers and other vice and gang crimes associated with
human trafficking.

The task force will work with personnel from various entities
throughout the City of Los Angeles including: victim services,
environmental improvements, and court mandated diversion programs
in order to build meaningful relationships with the
community.

The task force created a new email to improve communications with
the community and provide the opportunity to report crimes related
to prostitution and human trafficking. The email is
